The following information pertains to vinyl shutter painting and the Mid-America brand shutters that Larson Shutter sells.
NOTE: You can only paint the Mid-America vinyl shutters that were purchased as “030 Paintable”. If you purchased your shutters in any of the “Color Thru” choices then your shutters cannot be painted.
From the manufacturer:Ensure the product is clean and free from debris. Use a TSP (Trisodium Phosphate) based cleaner prior to painting.
For best results, use a 100% acrylic paint or paint that is formulated to bond to plastic and vinyl. Mid-America recommends Sherwin Williams A100 or equivalent. Always follow the paint manufacturer's instructions for surface preparation and priming.
